@loboloco it depends upon whom you ask in particular, but my process is fairly simple: I study an hour everyday, no breaks, and I review any wrong answers thoroughly. Sundays are good for sections & PTs. I do not do frequent practice tests; sections are better for preventing fatigue.

High scorers can suffer from overconfidence and sometimes go “too fast”, which can lead to certain mistakes on trap answer questions. I always keep tabs on my timing throughout a section or test, but I also try to slow down when warranted to get those questions right.

I would counsel the following: learn conditional logic and all the group indicators inside and out (otherwise, CR questions take forever and leave you less time for other questions that take a long time, like PSA). Learn the difference between NA and SA very well, and keep them straight in your head. The spectrum model that they teach in the CC is great. Practice deep reading and try not to let little details pass you by in questions. Finally, attend some tier three difficulty classes if only to learn certain habits and thought processes that save time (for example, I learned that you can eliminate half of the answers on many CR questions just based on a false conclusion drawn… “Therefore, [sufficient condition] must be true”, which is wrong. Only necessary conditions can be concluded.

More practice tests is not generally recommended unless you are trying to accustom yourself to the environment of taking the test itself. If you have test taker’s anxiety, it might be a good idea.

Otherwise, I recommend studying an hour or two hours every day, no “rest days”, no cramming, and that you use the weekend for a section/pt and reviewing these in depth. Consistency is really what makes the difference.

The virtue of sections is that you can still simulate a portion of the real thing but at a smaller scale, allowing you to build successful test-taking strategies that work for you.

Finally, if you have not done the Core Curriculum, do that first. I avoided it for a long time but have since greatly benefited from it.

How highly do admissions officers/offices value international experiences and connections? I have lived in many different countries, and my wife is a Bolivian national, hence we have spent quite a bit of time outside the United States. My personal statement for this application cycle was about the importance of the Rule of Law to me (having lived in areas wherein it is nonexistent, haha). But this personal statement seemed to severely underperform. Is this a viable narrative, and, if not, what might be better?

@VincentLaGuardiaG. no. "Without" is a Group Three indicator.

The final premise is translated as /SI -> /GL (GL -> SI), whereas you translated it backwards.

@epayne17 completely uncalled for vulgarity. You are free to use another service that only ever shows you easy questions only so that you weep over your horrible scores on official tests.

Which do you prefer: struggle now on practice drills and tests or struggle on the real thing where there are real consequences, like not getting into law school and having massive debts?

@AlexTiro in the same boat. Perseverance is a virtue!

Opportunity has probably passed, but, nonetheless…
